Well, in all honesty, that stipulates they'll get past Ma Long somehow. And I'm in awe of the solidity of Ma Longs comeback, this and the preceding two events he played. Nothing's impossible, but defeating Ma Long remains a very, very tall order.

Well, if Liu Shiwen can ride that high all the way through the final, than I see nothing that can stop her.

Somebody pinch me. What happened just there? Stellar match closing by LSW.

The better players I train with that use LP can make mince meat of light backspin serves, attacking them with their LP and producing tight, whirling hard to counter/block/counterspin attacks. The best of them manage to place these LP attacks awkwardly: counter to my anticipation, deep into my...

What, not Skyline TG2? Or is that his fh?

Unretire already!

FZD's new BH doesn't really sing in praise of Dignics 05, so it seems. Maybe not a pixie dust improvement after all...

Taking only my own personal timeline as a reference: Stellan Bengtsson, István Jónyer, Mitsuru Kohno, Seiji Ono, Jan-Ove Waldner (twice), Jörgen Persson, Jean-Philippe Gatien and Werner Schlager would not necessarily concur. That's 9 out of the last 24 WTTC titles won by a non-Chinese national...

Adam's doing the superstar FAN/DING - XUI/LUI XD semifinal. With the Jill that used to be Hammersley once upon a time. Yay!

"See people! I am a foot fetishist and am coming out!"

Piggy Bank

That set me thinking for a while. Thanks. I agree, that's the way we should consider it.

Who's win did you find undeserving? Or are we talking of different levels of deserving, the overarching level at which many would find the narrative of the sort-of generational taking of the crown from ML by FZD the natural and satisfying one?

SF for Apolonia/Monteiro, then, unless Boll's fever suddenly subsides on ultrashort notice. Anything goes these days!

Before this match Wang Yang might have felt lucky that Simon Gauzy took out Xu Xin. He will have second thoughts about that now in that case.

Not so fast! The 4th looks like a redemption game. It's close anyway, after three games of carnage. Gauzy seems to be playing a Treiber K. Another going over the the Dark Side of the Viscaria family?

And a fadeout FH on a disturbingly dirty wiggle, as if it's nothing. This is another level entirely.

Ok, there it is; Gauzy's block of that around-the-net near-roller will probably be the best point of the year.

It can be hard to keep focus after playing a few wipeout games. Gauzy seems to be able to. I don't recall seeing much kills of this quality since the days of Kong Linghui.

Surprising to see a defender struggle that much with the level of spin put on the ball by an offender. Gauzy is running a show of massive strength here.
